[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 466278, member: 3745"] Troutslayer, You are exactly right, shooting critters at 1000 is not as easy as the TV shows make it look! The reason is that the shows don't (and really can't) show the time, effort, practice, etc, etc that goes into making that shot. In many cases the shot really is pretty easy, but it is the culmination of many many hours of study and work. In my opinion, if a person is just getting into LR shooting so he can make a 1000 yard shot on an elk, he probably will not be very successful at it. In order to be willing to put in the time, effort and money into LR shooting, you must enjoy LR shooting as a personal challenge. The side benefit is that in the right circumstances and conditions you can make that 1K shot on the elk of a lifetime across the canyon. [/QUOTE]
